This study aims to identify secondary metabolites contained in the infusion of turmeric rhizome and red ginger rhizome. The method used is a color test with specific reagents to determine the content of secondary metabolites qualitatively which includes, alkaloids, flavonoids, triterpenoids/steroids, saponins and tannins. The extraction method used is the infusion method, the results of phytochemical screening tests from turmeric rhizome infusion contain alkaloids, flavonoids, triterpenoids/steroids and tannins. While the phytochemical screening of red ginger rhizome infusion contains flavonoids, tannins, triterpenoids, and saponins.]]>
